Disable "HP Smart Intall" for USB storage devices
Details
OS: Windows 7 x 64
Laptop: HP Probook s 4540
Printer: HP P1600
After using an HP printer to my work and have installed the drivers "HP Smart Install" has been installed in a form any driver (?) USB.
The option to double click default to any storage device that is inserted into a USB port is now 'HP Smart Install ". I can't remove this function.
I deleted all the drivers for the USB via Device Manager - this has not fixed the problem.
I reformatted the USB (was not empty in the first place - no autoplay files)-no solution.
I returned all the default media - no fix AutoPlay options.
I used SIUtility.exe HP printer drivers and used PC > disable HP Smart Install - no solution.
I completely uninstalled all the computer - no fix HP printer drivers.
This is a screenshot of the feature that I start to remove - http://i.imgur.com/v1IcdZ0.png
Can you please advise how do I completely remove this feature as default double click for a storage device is to "explore".
AngusMacsalvation,
Sorry that it was not an option to turn off the Smart Install from the integrated Web server.
I was check this.
Make sure that you run the CD files or program uninstall.
In this way, it must delete all the registry files.
Make sure that the USB cable from the printer is disconnected.
Here are the steps to run the uninstall of the computer or the CD.
To uninstall program files:
Go to start and select a computer.
Select the C drive.
Select the program files or program files x 86.
Open the HP name and printer folder.
Select uninstall.
Uninstall from the CD:
Go start, computer, right click on the CD for the printer, left click Open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
Remove drivers in server properties, if they are still worn.
Go to start, devices and printers.
Highlight any printer.
Click the print server properties in the upper part.
Click the tab drivers at the top of the print server properties window.
Choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click on remove.
The next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click Yes to say that you are sure you want to do.
Then in the window devices and printers, right click on your printer and remove the device if the printer is still listed.
If the printer doesn't figure yet in the Device Manager or in the registry, we would delete there also.
Keep me posted.

Impossible to disconnect itself from USB storage devices
Original title: USB storage devices
Once more I couldn't properly disconnect a USB storage device because Windows tells me that a program is still using the device. There is no reason for any program to access it then why on earth isn't Windows the task/program name so that I can address the issue instead of having to restart my computer? Of the many irritants "characteristic" of Windows, it is one of the most galling.

Windows 7 is no longer reads the USB storage devices
I have a problem similar to some other posts, but different enough so that I write it here.
When I insert a USB storage device (like a Microcenter * Go Flash) Windows 7 Ultimate just shows a yellow exclamation mark next to the device in Device Manager. OtherDevices, USB Flash drive. Software update driver fails, no update. Uninstalling and reinstalling has no effect.

USB\VID_1307 & PID_0163
There is no ping, no popup. Nothing. All this used to work very well, and now, when I need to copy files to work urgrnetly, he's dead.
Just rub a little salt, I CAN access the device through Linux in VMWare Workstation. But when vmware is not current execution, or when I disconnect and try to attach to host, nothing happens.
I tried each storage device USB I can find and no luck on any of them.
Thank you

After digging through the forums, I tried to copy the usbstor.inf and .pnf to the Windows\inf directory and reinstalled the driver through the Device Manager, and it loaded right up.
I don't know, but I suspect that the impact of this change, there are other devices that can complain. For now, the process of transfer between W7 and VMWARE/linux seems flawless.

From time to time, (isn't that every now and then, not every day or every week) a message appears on the computer screen to notify that "a storage device has been attached... and something or other on a port '-as it would if a new hardware device had just been installed or removed... only, I have not attached at a storage device.
In fact, apart from the scanner, printer and keyboard connected, which are already inserted until the computer is turned on, no USB storage device or any other thing seized or inserted into the computer when this message is displayed on the lower right screen where the icons on the desktop are,
Why would this happen unless I had personally inserted/joint a USB stick storage device myself in my computer?
I'm afraid that maybe someone to access details and store information from a remote location via a storage device? Is this possible?
And if it's an error of some sort, how to fix this problem?
Please notify. Thank you.
This probably means you have a bad USB connection somewhere. I got this a lot when I used markets good USB hubs. It also happened a lot on a couple of the USB plugs on my old laptop 4 year, where I had plugged in and out things in them so that the connectors are not as strong as they were when new. My main office more connected devices above that outputs 4 USB, that I had on the back, so I finally bought a card extension to add 4 more exits USB. If this is your case, perhaps you could do the same. Expansion cards are not very expensive, usually in the range of $ 15 to $ 25, and they are fairly simple to install.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

Repeater wireless WRT1900AC + USB storage device
For my setup, I had to use this router in wireless Repeater mode and continue to share USB storage. To my surprise, I found that the USB storage function wasn't available anylonger as well as most of the other functions. The problem is that I can not, and surely there is no rational explanation for why the function of USB storage isn't here as
1 opportunity Samba server has no requirements for a device to be a MAIN router hosting
2. the router assigned IP address (DHCP server or statically) seeps
3. the router was also named network assigned
So my question here is really not WHY, but rather WHEN it will be addressed by Linksys Engineering? Must still hope us to achieve this functionality is enabled in future versions of the firmware.
I did the below application functionality with Linksys Engineering about this thread:

Notification of 'removed USB storage device' persistent.
Hello
My motorcycle G shows after persistent notification.
'USB storage deleted '.
Removed USB storage. Insert new media. "
This notification is displayed after removing the Flash drive by removing it from settings-> storage and pulling the OTG with the drive cable. The notification seems to be stubborn and it can not be erased it unless the device is reset. It isn't harmful, but because of my OCD (mandatory disorder that) for the verification of notifications is causing irritation.
I notice that only KitKat 4.4.2 and not JellyBean 4.3.
Any ideas to clear the notification? or is this a bug?
Thank you
Ngom
Update:
I uploaded a screenshot and added a correction in question (the correction is in bold).
Hey all,.
This bug has been reported and a fix is under way.
See you soon,.

Drag and drop copy from C: to a USB storage device
I saved a few songs my cloud storage on my C: drive. How can I highlight these files and drag / drop in a device of USB storage for future use?
The flash drive should show in the view of "Computer" (on Windows XP is called 'My Computer') similar to a player. Just double click on the flash player and then paste the songs.
DRM - Digital rights management - it prevents moving songs of moved between devices.
